I was down until I found out it would not run in the 6's. Too slow for me.

Nice find, though.

That thing is a monster.

Who says autos are slow

Hobo

mmmm poopra

NFLblitze1

Marko's Supra, this guy is HUGE in Chicago

Crazy Bimmer

Looks like he buys womans clothes off ebay :gheylaugh:


Sick car though.

CLpower

nobody, esp. auto supra's



esp. a good chevy tranny (which I think he has in it)

Stupid people do. And they are all over.

Your correct, the TH400 is a Chevy tranny.

Berner

that turbo is HUGE

babyblue

Now that is just a badass supra

1520WHP = 8 seconds?

It's more of a dyno queen then a drag racer.

importtuner

It's a full weight; close to 2 ton car; what do you expect?

srika

Supras need more rwhp to run fast than typical "drag cars" do.....

I think this is mainly due to the IRS........

btw this is old news.... I mean.... OLD news.

srika

h8.... you fool.

wonder who it could be.......

TheMirror

That's what I was wondering. If its draggin' around 3600lbs., that will certainly take the edge off.

Plus, it turned that 8.42 on 38lbs. of boost, not the 59lbs. that it used to put out the 1500+ on the dyno. Probably closer to 1000hp.

srika

excellent catch..... I think 1520 is just the max rwhp.....

srika

around 360

EmuMessenger

1000, 1500, who cares!?!?! Both are amazing!

Yea, Markos car is old news. Chicago reppin it big with the High hp cars, now with that viper, i forgot how much power it was crakin out but it was around the 1500hp area-+. and i think markos car is around 1750hp at the crank.

streetracing901

320 factory specs.

srika

uhh... yeah. 1520rwhp is about 1750hp...

I don't know too many other Chicago street cars that are running 8.4 @ 162. It may be old but its still damn fast.

srika

He asked how much it was putting out stock, not what its factory specs are. It was putting out around 360hp to the flywheel stock, per dyno tests.

Yumcha

Holy mother of...

Sarushibai

dude frekin 500 hp is nuts... you generally have to pay around 6 figures for 500+ hp cars stock, BUT FREKIN 1500 HP HOLY JESUS TAP DANCING CHRIST!!! i mean i knew the 4 highest hp cars in the states were supras, but to be sold online. The problem is the cars only purpose was racing, and 79000 miles on a car that has ONLY be raced.. hmm... im sure lots of the parts are still new, but even still... not a daily driver.

srika

crazy thing is, this car was actually "daily-drivable"... not like, daily-drivable in the snow, but, for pseudo-"normal" driving, it was possible.

and remember its about 1750 hp at the flywheel

and yes, the engine requires a little more maintenance than typical engines... premium+ fuels are required..

fsttyms1

wow.

darrinb

wow, i wonder how long that car can last w/o breaking down, it already has 70k on it

Maximized

I know of a lot of drag cars that could be daily drivable. It depends on your definition of daily driver. There is a guy in a 7 second stang that drives his car to local meets. This Supra wouldn't be much fun to drive on a regular basis.

Hobo

then its a factory freak. those supras are supposed to be at 320

srika

this is not common. most 7-second cars you see at car meets are on trailers.

and regarding the Supra (probably) not being much fun to drive on a regular basis -

srika

320 was the rated hp. It's a known fact that they were making closer to 360hp stock.

And there also were some "factory freaks". I know a guy who had a '97 auto. The most basic Supra mod is pulling the VSV actuator hose - this gives you an increase in boost. With JUST this "mod" alone - keep in mind it costs nothing to do it - he was trapping at 114 mph. Weight with passenger was approximately 3650 lbs. You would need about 430 hp at that weight, to trap 114 mph. And incidentally, to trap 107-108 mph (which a stock Supra could do) - you would need 350-360hp.

On top of this, you need more power in a Supra to run the same trap as comparable other cars - Supras are a bitch to launch. So these numbers above are guidelines - the actual figures are probably even higher, for Supras.

srika

Understand that any car at this HP level will "break". This car has already been rebuilt many times. He pretty much blew SOMETHING every time he went to the track. Remember, the serious drag racers love the phrase "if you don't break something, you're not going fast enough"... or thereabout...

Look at NHRA..... they have to rebuild the engine after each and every pass.

My friend, whom is big into street racing, says there are a few 7 second cars floating around Chicago. The Supra wouldn't be very driveable everyday, hence I said it wouldn't be much fun. My everyday drive in the morning consists of sitting in bumper to bumper traffic. I have driven a few high hp boosted cars and they aren't something I would want to drive daily.

Maximized

I thought TT Supras trapped higher? Is 107-108 mph common, or is this in ideal conditions with a good driver? I have been hesistant to mess with Supras in my Mustang, but if they on trap 107ish stock, it should be a good race. Of course, finding a stock Supra might be a bit hard.

bigman

As are most Supras.

srika

soo.. you're not buying it?

srika

a 100% stock Supra is right around 107 mph. But you're right, it's gonna be hard to find any stockers... what kinda numbers are you running in your Stang?? rwhp, 1/4 mile..

srika

Nope....Not enough cash laying around, plus I would rather spend the money on something that turns.
